Hi Aibanese:
Remember the little cream-colored booklet that was passed
around the first day of our reunion party? Most of our friends including our
three beloved teachers had signed and put down their comments. I finally got
sometime to scan all of the pages and to organize them into one single MS
PowerPoint Show file (Aiban.pps). It is of very great value and it would be a
great disappointment if you missed seeing it for yourself. To down load, right
click your mouse on the Aiban.pps below, then select Save Target As... Enjoy!

Remember
when we asked you at the beginning of the season to stay tuned for the best
show that was coming your way? Well, here it is. We have saved one of the best
for last.
The
only thing we ask for is that while you're enjoying this, please keep in
mind that this is only the beginning, one of our very own members have stepped
out to share her thoughts, her lifestyle and, most of all, her current family
pictures with us. We really got touched with her sincerity and courage.
Hopefully, many will follow in the near future. At the mean time, please send
her a note, a message, or whatever you feel like to applaud and to cheer her
up.
Here
we go again, ladies and gentlemen! Aiban proudly presents the one and
only one... ANNE.

James,
If you think it is worth reading, please post it into the Web for sharing to
Aibanese, as Le Dung said, just for adding some color into Aiban .
Thanks.

To all my friends,
This is a little story about me, about the people and events happened in my
life, the memory that has been deep-rooted in my heart for many years, good or
bad. From it, you can see how a naive little girl in school (part 1),
experienced a big change (part 2), then turned into a real woman, a wife & a
mother. (part 3).
Sharing with all of you.
p.s. forgive me for using fictitious names in the story.

Many thanks to the generous contributions from our friends. The number of photos
on this page have really been getting larger over the months. To avoid the lengthy
loading time, I have separated them into two sections. The other section is in
the new page below:

O Thanh had sent these priceless old photos to share with all of us. I wish that
I could recall
the name of every single friend who is in these photos. That way, I can put a little
remark below each of them. Well, I guess that age has really, really caught up
with me.
Colette Du Tien Hat has sent these treasures over here to share with all of us.
Enjoy!
The following photos were sent from Luu Nguyet Tieu. I lost the data that I had
on my hard drive when I gave my computer away, that included the photos of our
fiends from Canada, which were sent over from Kiet and Collet. I might beg some
of them to send them here one last time. So that we can eventually have the
complete set of pictures of our friends up there in Canada.
These are the photos of our friends from Canada that were re-sent over from
Collet Du Tien Hat and Peimei:
I got these photos from Peimei ( Duong Thuc Hang). These were two separated
trips that took place this past July and August. One was on Hermosa Beach and
the other was the three day and two night camping trip at Cachuma Lake ( near
Santa Barbara), any body want to guess who is in there?
Thanks anh Nguyen Thanh for taking these marvelous photos of us at Zuma Beach
(Malibu). Friends that were in the first photo included (from right to left) Cam
Le Minh, Van Hung Quoc, Ung Gia Vinh, Duong Thuc Hang, Phung Chi Nhon, Vuong Vi
Nhon and two of the Ai Ban's little products. The lovely Ai Ban T-shirts were
provided by our "Dai Ca Che" ( older sister) Peimei. If you love Ai
Ban, you'll love this T-shirts. Hopefully everybody's going to have one next
year.
